Alcatraz
by Al Denson

Album: Signature Songs - Al Denson

Snap the latch, stay down low
Come outta your cell and follow me close
Down the dark corridors, past the guards
And into the murky moor, down to the rocky shore
To sail away without a trace
He rescued me from hopelessness
I feel like I've escaped from

Chorus
Alcatraz, oh, my life was like
Alcatraz, I could have died in that
Alcatraz, what little hope was fading fast
Then I called His name, Lord, erase this impossible
Past, and before I even knew it
No more Alcatraz

This cruel world, cold and dark
Chained to pain and a criminal heart
Lock and key, guns and dogs
Had to have a miracle to beat the odds
Down to the cold concrete, a desperate cry for help
I found Heaven there on my knees
When he saved me from the hell of

Bridge
He did my time, changed my heart
And set my record straight
He sent me home with a master plan
To help some more escape from
